Use RO or SO numeric identifiers for properties

[balhoff]

SO contains a number of object properties using hash IRIs that don't resolve and don't follow the OBO identifier policy. Lots of these are identical to relations in RO. Would it be possible to make use of the RO relation IRIs? For those that aren't in RO, it would be nice to create new SO numeric IRIs for these relations, so that they resolve when accessed in a web browser, and can also be compacted to a CURIE using the standard SO to http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/SO_ mapping.

By the way, it is possible to continue using the shortname identifier for the relations within the OBO file if desired. I'd be happy to help with any technical issues.

Let's do this. Many of the relations can be swapped out for relations in RO (which @keilbeck and I originally defined in https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20226267/). As you say, the obo stanzas will be unchanged, and the owl will be much improved.

@balhoff I believe you should be able to make PRs on so-edit.obo in the root folder.

Okay, great, I can make a start then.
